wink was from the philly area, with nigel richards and carl cox.. back the mid 90s into the early naughts they had 611 records in philly that was the hub of edm in the area..
when i first got into edm, it was mostly hard core djs like lenny mutha fucking d, and industrial strength records, gabber house was big.. rotterdam records.. then jungle came out and about. loved a lot of early jungle.. not into house at all though..

Right on! old school jungle was so raw! Have you given any deep house a shot? I recently started getting into it when I saw skream play a deep house set. Ever go to any of those badass warehouse raves with everyone geeked outta there mind on ecstasy just loving the vibe? haha good ol days

I was never too big on hardcore/hardstyle actually I used to hate electronic music till I heard some dnb arena mix from late 90s withe pete tong chiming in every so often haha. Then I was clueless until I heard some grimey garage stuff/early dubstep and got really into breaks/jungle. and of course dubstep, but the deeper stuff like truth, skream, hatcha, salva those dudes. Finally got some tables a few years back and just immersed myself in bass music!

there's a lot of dubstep i'm not too crazy about.. idk, there's a lot of good stuff, don't get me wrong, but over all, i'd say i like jungle way more then dubstep though..
and lol, omg, in philly, back in the very early 90s before the scene got really big, they'd have like techno night at a few gay clubs in the area.. well, i was at some club with a few friends, and it ended, so we all ended up at the gay club thinking maybe it'd be our night.. well, naturally it wasn't, lol, but i was with this chick i wanted, so in i went.. it was mainly all gay black men, and the music was that deep house stuff.. i just don't like the vocal samplings used in most house.. the beats and all are good, i just can't get into the sampling they tend to use in like 99% of house.. plus, it seems most house lakes the wobble and drop that i love in good jungle or dnb that i absolutely love..

and oh yeah, my first hand full raves, you'd get a flyer, and all it'd have was a number on it, you'd have to call, then they'd give another number, you'd have to call like 3 or 4 of them, lol, and only at the last minute would they give you the addy for the party..
we'd pull up, and it'd be in a real industrial part of town, dead quiet at night, then you'd just see a big ass line of people standing outside of an empty warehouse. finally get inside, and everyone would be blowing their whistles and shit.. e was just barely getting onto the scene even, it was a lot of lsd for the first year or two before i finally tried my first e probably in like 93 or so, i candy flipped my first time and i was hooked, lol.. man, lot's of good memories for sure.. :D

Haha thats awesome! they never threw any really underground parties like that in calgary, at least not when I was getting into the scene but I always hear those stories and wish I coulda been to some of those they sounded like alot of fun! acid and raves go together so well, acid is probably one of my favorite drugs. I used to do so much when I was selling some bomb liquid, those parties garunteed good sales! I totally agree about dnb being better than dub, theres just more good dnb than good dub, dnbs so much older. Haha we all make the mistake of chasing some hot girl to a gay club every once in awhile thinking itll pay off big time. That musta been funny though a bunch of sweaty gay black dudes rocking out to house. lmao. Theres some really nice deep house coming out now thats not filled with so many samples, ill post some/pm when i get to my main comp if ya want. I had the nickname mr wobbles for a long time haha, made me think of this

my life is pretty boring now, i have to admit, i'm 42, feel like i'm about 60 or so some days, lol, but man, i have to admit, i really had tons of fun in my 20's.. i wouldn't do much of anything different, other then going out even more then i did, which would be pretty hard to do, but still.. had a blast back then for sure.. :D
got lots of killer stories, and feel like i didn't miss out on much ..

hey, do you know any good dnb that has an mc with it?? i used to go to this club in the later 90s, and they'd always have an mc going along with the dnb, and i absolutely loved it, but can never find anything good searching around on boobtube.. just thought i'd ask as you seem to know what's up..

Only way to live man! The festivals they have here are so amazing I couldnt imagine not going to them after attending a few!

Theres a few prime dnb mcs i know of, Harry shotta, MC Skibadee, dynamite mc, IC3, Rebel MC (Congo Natty) Those are the best ones off the top of my head dizzee rascal sometimes does some dope stuff not always dnb though


Good dnb mc's can make it so much more fun!
